Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Martin Freeman recorded his lines during his Hobbit promotional schedule, meaning he was simultaneously Bilbo and Bernard. The duality of elf.
This film exists in the fascinating direct-to-DVD Christmas industrial complex of the early 2010s, when every British actor got their obligatory animated holiday paycheck. Joan Collins' villainous turn as Neville's mother was reportedly one take of pure camp commitment.
